Thank you oldohiohome and heywood for all your hard work. This morning I see the birth returns. I know much info is written down wrongly in those days so that maybe the case with surname. Where it shows Residence of Informant 'Black Mill St', I've come across that address before and I see the name above Ellen has the same place and name - could this be a doctors or hospital do you think? I will see today if any of that info rings any bells with my friend.
I got very excited when I read of the man having the accident on train but alas don't think it was the right person. He worked on trams and was killed in a tram accident (that's the story anyway) he was an Inspector. His wife in Ireland received a pension until he died in Boston. I will look on Roots US as you recommended, I hadn't thought of that.
